According to Billbil-kun, a reliable leaker and data miner, Madden NFL 25 is set for release on August 16, 2024. Although this is just a rumor, what strengthens this statement is the release date of previous Madden NFL games. EA has been following a typical fashion over the past few games, releasing all of their NFL games between August 15 and 20. Following the same trend this year, we can expect Madden NFL 25 to launch on August 16.

The report published by billbil-kun provides further details regarding the game editions, early access release date, price and much more. The only thing missing from the trail is the cover athlete from this year's NFL video game.

Ahead of the rumored launch on August 16, players can pre-order Madden NFL Standard and Deluxe Editions. While the Standard Edition is reportedly priced at $69.99, the Deluxe Editions will retail for $99.99. Leaker billbil-kun also says that those who purchased the Deluxe Edition will get four days early access (August 12). Players with an EA Play subscription (included in Game Pass) will also get early access to Madden NFL 25.

What's new in this year's NFL video game is improved FieldSense technology. The FieldSense was introduced in Madden NFL 23 and has since changed the look of the game. EA is reportedly improving on this technology with a reworked physics engine so players can get "realistic animations with smooth gameplay."
